XJ-S FUEL TANK RECALL R351 RECALL

GROUP 2 VEHICLES No: 7

1982-1984
Model: My XJ-S Date: DECEMBER, 1990

KEY POINTS: RECALL INFORMATION AND REPAIR PROCEDURE
Jaguar Cars Exports Ltd. has determined that in all model variants of 1978-1991 XJ-S (excluding convertibles by Hess & Eisenhardt) the possibility exists that excessive fuel vapor pressure can develop. Pressure variations within the fuel tank which occur during normal running could weaken the structure of the fuel tank causing a fuel leak with the resultant possibility of a fire.

Any instances of fuel tank leakage discovered during the recall kit installation may be rectified following normal procedures and claimed as described under the "Warranty Information" section of this bulletin.
